Yea, my doc says it's the people that never think about checking their BP that most worry him. Prolonged high bp is not good. My condition was genetic and did not present itself until the calcification was enough to cause a murmur. The week before I had the procedure and had a pre-surgery visit with a nurse, she said she could hear it clearly. I had my surgery at 55, but my surgeon told me he had done the same surgery on a 27 year old the week before I went in.
My Angio showed no other blockages, which helped to make my procedure vanilla in the eyes of the surgeon.
